Disney’s BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, the first North American touring production of the musical presented by Disney in over 25 years, is based on the 1991 Academy Award®-winning animated feature film. BEAUTY AND THE BEAST premiered on Broadway in 1994 and still ranks as the 10th longest-running show in the industry’s history. Nominated for nine Tony® Awards, winning for Best Costume Design, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST remains one of the highest-grossing Broadway shows of all time. The title’s visibility and success have expanded globally with productions of the stage show and the smash Oscar®-nominated 2017 live-action film, which grossed over $1B worldwide.
